In my personal opinion, rooting is really a bad idea to do on your Android Device.
To completely explain to you what rooting is, I will give you the advantages and disadvantages of rooting and I will allow you to balance it out. But to set things clear, I will not teach you how to root your phone because I don`t you to blame me if you brick your phone.

►What is Android Rooting?

•Before we start, its better that you know what rooting is. Rooting is gaining full access to your Android, giving you a superuser privileges to modify android to its full extent. This is almost the same as iPhone`s jailbreaking.

►Advantages of Rooting

•Custom Firmware - Rooting will allow you to install custom firmware for full phone modification, Although I don`t suggest users to install custom firmwares, but this is really the best advantages of rooting.

•Apps that requires Root access - There are a lot of great apps that will only work if you have root access. But in this current state of android development, most of these apps that requires root access now has no root version.

•Overclocking - I don`t really recommend this but its also an advantage. Overclocking is pushing your phone processor to its limit for faster phone.

►Disadvantages of Rooting.

•It will tamper your warranty - Phone warranty will be void when you root your phone.

•Official firmware gives phone more potential - Although custom firmware will give you full modification, official firmware from your the phone`s manufacturer is better and more stable.

•Errors and instability - Rooted phone has more cases of errors than stock phones. Some others are very unstable that sometimes the phone doesn`t really work until you install a new firmware.

•Security and vulnerabilities - Your phone will be exposed and vulnerable to security threats because you opened and accessed your phone`s full root system.

•Overclocking problems - Although this will make your phone faster, overclocking still has issues. Processors produce more heat when overclocked, so you are literally cooking your phone when you overclock it. Overheated phones might lead to permanent damages, I tried overclocking my phone and I learn this the hard way.

•Brick - rooted phones are more prone to brick. Brick is a phone state that sometimes cannot be fix or repaired. There is a soft brick which can be fixed by flashing the firmware, there is also hard brick that will turn your full working phone into a paper weight.

►Conclusion:

•Whether rooting is a good or a bad idea is up to you. You just need to balance the pros and cons of rooting. Will rooting help your needs or not?
Good Luck!

One click root usually works for most phones. the good idea depends on how you view it. rooting usually voids the warranty on the phone so if there is a problem and you need to send it back you cant with out them knowing, and its not as easy as just doing a factory reset and its gone. your phone gets flashed nd clocked and the manufacturer will know.
